I looove doing engagement sessions – it’s so fun getting to know my couples before the day of their wedding…..to hear all about the wedding plans, how they met, how he proposed…..all of that goodness:) Kari and David have been together for 10 years, so I just assumed they met in high school. Kari told me their dads are actually best friends, and that’s how they met – how cool is that? To have in-laws that are already best friends? You can’t beat that!
Last weekend I headed down to South Jersey for their engagement session. They chose to do their session at their house, which I LOVED. They bought it about two years ago, and it was in ROUGH shape when they bought it. I would have never guessed it if David hadn’t shown me “before” pictures, because it is SO nice at this point – inside and out. You can tell they put a TON of hard work into it, so it was a lot of fun doing their session there:)
They have a little ivy-covered shed out back, that I kinda fell in love with:

Kari, you have the best smile in the world – love it!


They have this HUGE willow tree in their back yard, so we definitely had to get some pictures by that sucker:

I get REALLY excited when I see fields full of tall grass….there was one RIGHT in their back yard….how lucky am I??

Under the willow tree…..I think we all got smacked in the face by branches a couple of times. It was W-I-N-D-Y that day!


Mmmm this is my favorite! Love the lighting, expressions, emotion, everything:)

So Kari and Dave made a deal. When she gets a ring, he gets a bike. Love that idea! When I got home and told Jay the story he was all “yo, where is my bike”? My response? Your gift was me. You get this chick, for the rest of your life. Looks like you come out on top Jay:) Hah so we had to get some pictures on the bike:

Hotness! Love it!

There are some girls where it’s just impossible to take a bad picture of them. Kari, you’re one of ‘em:)


HOW cute?? Love these two:)

Haha I HAD to include this picture – they wanted some pictures with their pup, and I couldn’t stop laughing when I saw this one….he was so excited to be outside!

Kari & Dave, thanks for hanging out for the afternoon, and braving the 50 mph winds! It was so fun getting to know you guys, and now I can’t wait for your wedding even more!
